Residents in Granbury, Texas have filed a lawsuit against a nearby Bitcoin mining facility, alleging that constant, high-pitched noise from the operation is harming their health and quality of life. They report impacts such as sleep disruption, stress, and other physical and mental health issues tied to the facility’s around-the-clock activity.
The lawsuit claims the site constitutes a public nuisance and violates residents’ right to a safe and livable environment. Earthjustice is supporting the case, framing it as part of a broader trend of communities experiencing negative impacts from energy-intensive digital infrastructure. The situation underscores increasing legal and community pushback as these types of facilities expand into residential areas.
